Text Quotes
I find capitalism repugnant. It is filthy, it is gross, it is alienating... because it causes war, hypocrisy and competition  (War Quotes) Once upon a time there were two countries, at war with each other. In order to make peace after many years of conflict, they decided to build a bridge across the ocean. But because they never learned each other’s language properly, they could never agree on the details, so the two halves of the bridge they started to build never met. To this day the bridge extends far into the ocean from both sides, and simply ends half way, miles in the wrong direction from the meeting point. And the two countries are still at war  (War Quotes) A professional soldier understands that war means killing people, war means maiming people, war means families left without fathers and mothers  (War Quotes) A really strong woman accepts the war she went through and is ennobled by her scars  (War Quotes) Bad things do happen in the world, like war, natural disasters, disease. But out of those situations always arise stories of ordinary people doing extraordinary things  (War Quotes) In a tribal organization, even in time of peace, service to tribe or state predominates over all self seeking; in war, service for the tribe or state becomes supreme, and personal liberty is suspended  (War Quotes) Since there will be no one left to talk peace after the next war, it makes good sense to break with tradition and hold the peace conference first  (War Quotes) The tactic of leading people into... a war that doesn’t make any sense by telling them they are under attack, and if they raise any objection they’re unpatriotic, is a very old tactic. And it doesn’t intimidate me  (War Quotes) It is said that those whom the gods wish to destroy they first make mad. It may well be that a war neurosis stirred up by propaganda of fear and hatred is the prelude to destruction  (War Quotes) Terrorism has become the systematic weapon of a war that knows no borders or seldom has a face  (War Quotes) Despite all the lunacy of the last century, all the absurdity of war and genocide, we believe that humans being are rational and are made to seek the truth  (War Quotes) I grew up playing war. We threw dirt and rocks at each other. We’d lead attacks. We’d break up into squads. It became a neighborhood thing for a while, our neighborhood against the other neighborhood. There was always a war breaking out somewhere  (War Quotes) The pacifist’s task today is to find a method of helping and healing which provides a revolutionary constructive substitute for war  (War Quotes) Every social war is a battle between the very few on both sides who care and who fire their shots across a crowd of spectators  (War Quotes) When the preponderance of human beings choose to act with justice and generosity and kindness, then learning and love and decency prevail. When the preponderance of human beings choose power, greed, and indifference to suffering, the world is filled with war, poverty, and cruelty  (War Quotes) Nothing will be resolved here. Nothing is ever resolved without war. It is the way of the universe  (War Quotes) As a society, you were unwilling to reflect upon the shared pain that united you with those who attacked you. You retreated into myths of your own difference, assumptions of your own superiority. And you acted out these beliefs on the stage of the world, so that the entire planet was rocked by the repercussions of your tantrums, not least my family, now facing war thousands of miles away  (War Quotes) Then there was the war, and I married it because there was nothing else when I reached the age of falling in love  (War Quotes) War always reaches the depths of horror because of idiots who perpetuate terror from generation to generation under the pretext of vengeance  (War Quotes) Betsy. The great war is on but I hope ours is over. Please come home. Joe  (War Quotes) There is no greater evil than killing. I don’t care whether they call it war or justice. Life is precious  (War Quotes) Peace is neither the absence of war nor the presence of a disarmament agreement. Peace is a change of heart  (War Quotes) War is a lie. War is a racket. War is hell. War is waste. War is a crime. War is terrorism. War is not the answer  (War Quotes) You must not blame us scientists for the use which war technicians have put our discoveries  (War Quotes) Behind the scenes there is a secretive, undeclared war of revenge that’s already under way  (War Quotes) So great are the psychological restistances to war in modern nations, that every war must appear to be a war of defence against a menacing, murderous aggressor. There must be no ambiguity about whom the public is to hate. Guilt and guilelessness must be assessed geographically and all the guilt must be on the other side of the frontier  (War Quotes) When every autumn people said it could not last through the winter, and when every spring there was still no end in sight, only the hope that out of it all some good would accrue to mankind kept men and nations fighting. When at last it was over, the war had many diverse results and one dominant one transcending all others: disillusion  (War Quotes) If ordinary people really knew that consciousness and not matter is the link that connects us with each other and the world, then their views about war and peace, environmental pollution, social justice, religous values, and all other human endeavors would change radically  (War Quotes) So many of the models of courage we’ve had, ones that are still taught to boys and girls, are about going out to slay the dragon, to kill. It’s a courage that’s born out of fear, anger, and hate. But there’s this other kind of courage. It’s the courage to risk your life, not in war, not in battle, not out of fear... but out of love and a sense of injustice that has to be challenged. It takes far more courage to challenge unjust authority without violence than it takes to kill all the monsters in all the stories told to children about the meaning of bravery  (War Quotes) The courage we need is not the fortitude to be obedient in the service of an unjust war, to help conceal lies, to do our job for a boss who has usurped power and is acting as an outlaw government. It is the courage at last to face honestly the truth and reality of what we are doing in the world and act responsibly to change it  (War Quotes)
